Journalism With Purpose
At YesBriefs, we believe journalism should do more than tell people what happened.
It should help people understand why it happened, who it affects and what comes next.
Our goal is to provide reporting that encourages informed conversation while respecting the diversity of opinions and experiences within the communities we serve.
We value accuracy, fairness, context and responsible reporting. When stories develop, we work to keep our readers informed as new information becomes available.
Minnesota Roots, Global Perspective
Minnesota is an important part of who we are, but our perspective extends far beyond the state.
Our readers live in different communities and follow events happening across the United States, Africa and the wider world. YesBriefs seeks to connect those stories and highlight the issues that increasingly link local communities to global events.
From a neighborhood story in Minnesota to a major development overseas, we believe every important story deserves attention and context.
